A Bombardier BD-100-1A10 aircraft (registration C-GFHR, serial number 20016) operated by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts was en route between Prague, Czech Republic and Geneva, Switzerland. At 1038 central European summer time, the flight crew had completed their "in-range" checklist, which included switching the direct current (DC) hydraulic pumps from "OFF" to "AUTO". Approximately two minutes after the switch was selected to "AUTO", an "L HYD DC PUMP FAIL" caution message was displayed. There were no other abnormalities and the crew continued with an otherwise uneventful landing at Geneva. After deplaning, the flight crew noted soot on the side of the fuselage trailing aft from the battery bay door. The flight crew proceeded to open the battery bay door and found there was an acrid electrical fire odour. The flight crew then opened the rear bay and found soot and a burned wire on the positive terminal of the left DC motor pump filter assembly.
